P!nk focused on her winemaking to get through the pandemic
She bought a vineyard in 2013
Last updated 25th Jun 2021
Most of us had a lot more time on our hands during lockdown last year. Music star P!nk was no different, as she had more time to focus on her organic wine label ‘Two Wolves’.
The ‘So What’ singer admitted that she feels like she lives three different lives, as a singer, a mum and a winemaker.
Speaking to WSJ Magazine, she said: “I have this touring life, my home life and then I make wine. The workload is huge, it’s just me and another woman who make all of this wine. I’m just a full-time mama during all of that.”
The 41-year-old, who just released her live album ‘All I Know So Far: Setlist’ has children Willow Sage Hart, 10, and Jameson Moon Hart, four, with her husband Carey Hart.
She explained that each harvest they make 114 cases of the popular wine, which usually sell out in a day.
As the music industry continues to be heavily impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and ongoing live music restrictions, P!nk explained how she took inspiration from history to learn how there could be a future for her as a winemaker, away from music.
She said: "I read The Winemaker's Wife, which was really fascinating, about Champagne and how the region participated in World War Two, and how they helped fight secretly against the Nazis by smuggling guns in barrels and all the intricate underground caves in France. It made me appreciate champagne more."
P!nk bought her 25-acre organic vineyeard in Santa Barbara County, California, in 2013. She then took classes with the Wine and Spirit Education Trust at the University of California.
